We Wanted Argentinian Messi, We Got Messy Argentina


23/64 of the way through the World Cup. Today we see a shocking result where not only did Croatia upset Argentina, but they did it by a score of 3:0. The loss for Argentina puts them strongly in danger of failing to qualify for the knockout stages. The tournament woes for Lionel Messi continue, and little seems to be capable to correct it. Elsewhere, Denmark and Australia drew 1:1, and France barely edged out Peru 1:0. Peru are the first South American side going home which has to be a disappointment for a nation that was expecting to be contenders in the group.

Today's Disciplinary Official is Argentina's coach, Jorge Sampaoli.

 This man is so mad he will literally strangle someone. In fact, he's so irate that all the players are receiving red cards for simply existing. TSzAL? That sounds like some Croatian bullshnnnn.... I think we've made another mistake with this whole Disciplinary Official. All red cards are rescinded. Everyone may carry on.
